FROM WRITER AND DIRECTOR “A comedy peppered with splendid performances” Screen Daily

Young stars Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name) and (The Neon Demon) head an all- star cast in Woody Allen’s charming New York-set romantic comedy.

A Rainy Day in New York tells the story of college sweethearts, Gatsby (Timothée Chalamet) and Ashleigh (Elle Fanning), whose plans for a romantic weekend together in the city are dashed as quickly as the sunlight turns into showers.

When Ashleigh gets an assignment from the school paper to interview celebrated film director Roland Pollard () in Manhattan, Gatsby seizes the opportunity to show small-town girl Ashleigh his favourite haunts in his home city. However, Gatsby’s well-laid plans are quickly side-tracked when Pollard whisks Ashleigh away on a head-spinning series of encounters that lead her from the director to screenwriter Ted Davidoff () to movie star Francisco Vega (Diego Luna).

Left to his own devices in the city, Gatsby ends up spending the day with Chan (), the sharp- witted younger sister of his ex-girlfriend, attending parties and having his own life-changing conversations and encounters. Through this series of chance meetings and comical adventures the pair discover that while you only live once, once is enough if you find the right person.
